Despite reports of what was forecast to be the coldest weekend in years, students of Chaya Mushka High School in Atlanta, Georgia, were enthused to visit New York for the weekend leading up to Chof Beis Shevat.
Accompanied by the principal, Morah Shelley Feinblum; their mechaneches, Mrs. Mushka Kesselman; and their devoted shluchos, Deborah Leah Wineburg and Leah Barendt, a full program was organized and executed despite the weather.
The girls visited the Ohel, the Rebbe’s library, and the Rebbe’s room, enhancing their connection to and enriching their appreciation of the Rebbe and Chabad.
They also witnessed the hustle and bustle surrounding the Kinus Hashluchos, which gave them a fuller understanding of the greater Chabad world of which they are a part.
The students were the recipients of Crown Heights hospitality at its finest, with engaging, informative, and enjoyable Shabbos meals replete with delicious food for both body and soul.
The girls had a great time at a Jewish-themed escape room in Flatbush, enjoyed visiting local stores, met with friends and family, and spent time cementing their connection as a group.
The girls returned to Atlanta feeling grateful to have been part of this inaugural trip and happy to have had such a stellar opportunity for growth and good times.
The High School is now welcoming applications for 9th, 10th, and 11th Grade.
Best school. Amazing.
